What does "no win no fee" actually mean?

No win no fee means you don't pay any legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful. If you win or settle, the lawyer is paid from your compensation — typically 25-40% of the settlement plus disbursements (medical reports, court fees, expert witnesses). The exact percentage is negotiated upfront and capped under the Legal Profession Uniform Law (50% maximum). You should always receive a written costs agreement before work commences. Some firms also offer "no win no fee plus disbursements covered" — meaning you literally pay nothing if you lose.

How long does a personal injury claim take to settle?

Most claims settle in 12-24 months without going to trial. Workers comp lump sum claims are often faster (6-12 months). Motor vehicle claims average 18 months. Medical negligence claims are slower (24-48 months). Cases that proceed to trial can take 3-5 years total. Most cases (95%+) settle through mediation or negotiation rather than trial. A good lawyer will give you a realistic timeline at the initial consultation.

Can I claim if the accident was partly my fault?

Yes, in most cases. Australian compensation law uses "contributory negligence" — your settlement is reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if your damages are $100,000 and you were 30% at fault, you receive $70,000. Even if you were 50%+ at fault, you may still receive partial compensation depending on the claim type. Workers compensation is "no fault" — you can claim regardless of fault, with limited exceptions for serious misconduct.
